That extra attack is invaluable, and you want to make use of their decent initiative. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714709.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714709.page GMT Wraithblades http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714721.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714721.page GMT Re:Wraithblades
I don't think that it's a good idea to put them in a Wave Serpent - that's means the minimum that they'll make it into assault by is usually turn 3, which isn't great.

I'd go for the Axe/Shield combo for the 5++ and use them as a bodyguard for your HQ, maybe bump them up to 7/8 guys for security.

I still think that Wraithguard are superior in every way.

So whilst an invun might be useful against lychguard, in an all-comers list, I would rely on their 3+ save, their T6, Warlock/Spiritseer powers and the fact they can potentially strike first before their enemy, to keep them alive.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714731.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714731.page GMT Wraithblades

That's until they get nuked by a Helldrake, IG Shooting, DEldar Dark Lance spam etc.

Your Wraithguard will get equally nuked by all that.

Also, if all those things goes after the Wraithblades with Ghostswords, it means they are not shooting at your tanks/scoring units. Wraithblades also beat every single CC or non-CC unit that does not have 2+ armour saves in close combat. They also murder T6 MCs which happen to be most of them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714779.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5714779.page GMT Re:Wraithblades
Do you need them to be able to kill stuff that is in numbers and doesn't ignore their 3+ armor?: Glaives

Do you want a more durable unit to take on enemy elites?: Axes and Shields

Its really a bummer you can't take both in the same squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5715015.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5715015.page GMT Wraithblades http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717682.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717682.page GMT Wraithblades cc, they need an invulnerable save for durability.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717762.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717762.page GMT Wraithblades http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717946.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5717946.page GMT Wraithblades

They can be tarpitted by big units, and despite ap2 terminators will crush them anyway. I think swords are just overall better. They will kill PA marines and are not horrible against big units either. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5718814.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/532267/5718814.page GMT
